well picked the up the R34 today from SPG.... car is a beast now lol goes hard, bascily splitfires fitted PFC fitted tuned, 040 fitted, service, boost controller fitted :D run's like a dream now

New front bar and lights going on after some numbskull backed into the GTR in Woolies carpark on Sunday arvo.

Not like he hit it real hard, just pushed the whole car nearly a meter backwards, while it was parked, unattended, with the park brake on and stuff...

Ouch :)

Doesnt really look like much at all actually.

Till ya get the bar cover off and see all the little bits that add up.

The rio is creased and bent on both sides, lh headlight has been pushed sideways into the indicator breaking the mounting lug, the rio mounts are bent and will need to be straightened...

Its been in the bodyworks today so they can do a quote and send off to my insurance company (Thumbs up to Shannons and Cooee Bodyworks)

I think the guy who did it will be a bit surprised when he gets the bill from them as he doesnt have insurance and I dont think he knows exactly what it was he backed into.

Just before you get all suicidal check all your breather plumbing and PCV valve to make sure your not building up to much crankcase pressure. A turbo seal is like a piston ring, so not a lot should go wrong in such a short time, but even a new seal will leak if there is to much backpressure in the bearing cavity so that the oil can't drain out. :D

Just a thought.

Garrett 3071, Hks version is 28-35 and about $2k more, http://www.horsepowerinabox.com/HPIAB2/category12_1.htm

The 3071r on here are bolt-on and some guys on SAU are making around 275rwkw. As for injectors there’s not a lot out there for neo's but Ben at SPG will be able to get them for you.

Got our wagon back last Friday and took it for a drive Saturday to blow the cob webs out after 2 months, believe me they are all gone!!! 'Vi-pec plug & play' works a treat with auto. My vote for Pete Lockett at Fuel Tech Automotive, Launceston.

Getting everything together to finish my car off ready to be tuned as i dont want it to be off the road for 4 years :)

Car currently sits with the following set up:

RB20DET

TD-06 20g L2

HKS 264 cams

Tomei 555 injectors

GK Tech cam gears

HYBRID GT FMIC with GReddy hotpipe

Just Jap oil cooler and relocation kit

APEXI power intake

Thanks to BMS i have coils, Z32 and coil cooler on the way, a decat pipe thanks to the guys from SPG and a new extinguisher supplied by Hamish @ REVOLUTION.

Once fitted (next week hopefully) the car will be ready for rego/tuning so i can start driving it again.

    • Gents, it will be getting the MX5 Mania kit and the 2.5 will be staying where it is My query was about the 0.64 or the 0.86, whilst the 0.64 might spool a bit faster, would the 0.86 be better IRT EGT and mechanical sympathy, with only a small difference in spool And as I assume I won't need alot of boost to get to 200kw, probably around 10 psi, and with max rpm at 6500, would high EGT even really be a issue with a 0.64 I'm heading into MX5 Mania at the end of Jan to discuss the install, so any info is welcome prior to that Basically have a chat and book a time so they can throw on the turbo kit, and fit a oil cooler with a thermostat, drive in drive out of course  In other news: just finished cleaning the car inside and out, it's now all ready to get covered in bugs and dirt driving to Goulburn tomorrow to lunch,  and go for a stroll along woolondilly River with the daughter and her boy, and of course, visit my grandcats and my new grandpuppy 
    • Sounds like it has an actual problem with mode select doors, or something.
    • Hope your all having a mean Xmas! If anyone happens to know any trick to using the insanely complex climate control system, I cannot get it to not be on dual zone no matter how many times I deselect it (will say it's not but both vents blow different temps). Also one side is always hot, one always cold 🤷
    • I'd be looking at the mentioned EFR kit, room to turn it up if decide on e85 (which we know you will) and be super responsive and fun on the street. OR https://v8roadsters.com/product-category/engine-conversions/engine-conversion-lsx/engine-conversion-lsx-nc/?srsltid=AfmBOorrJa2S76JR5ekXprxBOtU44a1UProbe64YaiVi9zTVp1Lj814w And add whooshy noise for extra fun C5 corvette prices are coming down locally here and a mate has a manual one and is a heap of fun on the street and track.
